Our harvest
Laura Como | October 24, 2009 | Comment
Will I see you give
More than I can take?
Will I only harvest some?
As the days fly past
Will we lose our grasp
Or fuse it in the sun?
Did she wake you up
To tell you that
It was only a change of plan?
Dream up, dream up,
Let me fill your cup
With the promise of a man.
–Neil Young, Harvest
I believe that part of parenting is planning for a harvest. If we plant the seeds, nurture the growth, and support the essence of experiential life direction through learning into adulthood, then the issues of our time–energy conservation, sustainability, and consideration of loving oneself and others–will not be a function of choice but a part of life itself.
Laura is our director of school operations. With 3 children of her own and a 19-year tenure in the early education field, her expertise is helping to build a community of health conscious achievers with the capacity to love and appreciate the world around us.
